   11. Now try it on our article
       1. Let's try it again on this article, a nice iBooks user guide

       3. Here's a pdf to open in iBooks. 20 iPad Lesson Ideas. Note: You cannot make notes on PDF files in iBooks
   12. NOTE: This does NOT always work. For example, some wordpress blogs seem to cause problems with it. Also, articles that span multiple pages that you must manually advance through.
   13. Think/Pair/Share about this process and what it does to teaching and learning

1. Taking Notes in iBooks- that links to another video tutorial
   1. Practice making notes
      1. Hints:
         1. Tap and drag your finger down along the left margin of the text you wish to highlight. As long as you don't lift your finger you can even select text across the page. Or, Double-tap to select a word, then drag the handles to include the desired text.
         2. Tap the highlighted text to see your options. There you can change the note color. (The circle with the line through it will remove the highlight and note.)
      2. Share your notes with me - jgates513 @ gmail.com (The videowill help with this)
         1. Return to Table of Contents

      3. NOTE: You cannot always make notes in items in iBooks. For example, you cannot makes notes on PDFs that are opened in iBooks. Some other books prevent it due to copyright concerns. Don't assume it will always work.
   2. Think/Pair/Share about this process and what it does for teaching and learning

1. Read (skim) the article and make notes
   1. In your teams, post at least two notes (in your role's color) in the book

      2. Green hat = pale green note (2nd from the left)
      3. Yellow hat = Yellow note (leftmost color)
      4. Red hat = Pink note (3rd from the right)
      5. Blue hat = Blue note (3rd from left)
      6. Black hat = Purple note (2nd from the right)

      1. You can move your own note, but not someone else's.
      2. Tap, hold a second and release to see your options.
